System filters

A set of saved filters that ship with every tenant. The agent doesn't have to set them up; they're in the saved-filters list from day one - grouped under a System Filters heading, separate from any private filters the agent has saved. Most agents start their day from one of these and only build custom filters when none of these answer the question.

The 12 built-in filters

How to use them

The system filters show up under their own group in the saved-filters list. Pick one and the inbox updates. The conditions appear as chips on the search bar, the same as any saved filter, and the agent can edit them in place. Saving the edited version creates a new private filter; the original system filter is untouched.

Why these twelve

They cover the questions an agent asks the inbox most often:

  • What's on my plate? (My Open Tickets)
  • What's nobody owning? (Unassigned)
  • What's about to breach? (SLA Approaching, SLA Breached)
  • What did I touch recently? (Recently Worked On)
  • Where am I on the side? (Watching)

A tenant admin can hide system filters they don't want their agents to see; ask your admin if some of the twelve aren't appearing.

What system filters don't do

  • They can't be deleted, only hidden.
  • They can't be edited (but you can save your edited version as a new private filter).
  • They can't be the source of a subscription directly; save your own copy first if you want to subscribe.
